Kornwerderzand
Kornwerderzand is a quick sail from Makkum — roughly 3–5 km across the water — where you can anchor off near the famous locks that connect the IJsselmeer to the Waddenzee. It's a fascinating spot to watch sea-going traffic pass through one of Friesland's iconic hydraulic engineering landmarks. The deeper water here also makes it a favourite for wind-driven watersports, so expect some lively conditions.
